Great presentation Aurooba. As of now, this seems to be the only video on TH-cam covering this subject from the bespoke developer perspective. luckily for me, the video also happens to have been created by someone who does an excellent job at explaining the concepts covered. Thank you.
Good to see vids like this. I use theme.json to hold all the theme constants I used to store in PHP, for instance a mode:development that controls console logging etc. You can expand this way beyond the supported keys if you import theme.json into your components
Great video, Aurooba. Thank you for sharing. You have helped me make sense of theme.json, where it fits and what it can be used for. I love your teaching style.
Thanks Charlie! I'm looking forward to making more in-depth videos about theme.json going forward. I agree, theme.json will definitely be very useful in the theme dev process! :)
Love your teaching style. Hope you'll be able to make more WordPress full site editing tutorials some day. Can we just get Automattic to hire you to make a course explaining everything. 😊
outstanding presentation - really very very cool. I did not see anything that goes in this detail. Your video rocks!! Keep on with such fantastic videos!
@@AuroobaMakes I 💕 LOVE 💕 your video on so many levels, and I really enjoy your effective teaching style. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. Plz keep up with more videos. The Wordpress-community needs you. God bless you.
Aurooba - i love your videos: they are so useful: You are extraordinary and your clips - like this one: brilliant as usual - 🔥🎉🙏👍❤ : Well it would be very helpful for the whole Wordpress-Community - if you were coming around with some vids covering WordPress Version 6.1 and all the new things that will be released next month
Hi. I'm confused about where to put the theme.json file for a child theme that already uses a theme.json file in the parent theme. I've got my new JSON file in the child theme directory and it doesn't seem to work. If I put it in the parent theme directory, it would overwrite the original theme.json file that came with the theme - plus, wouldn't it get overwritten if there was a theme update? Can't figure it out :) Thanks.
Thanks for this wonderful video. It's very nice and I really like it. I want to create some empty Block without any css class. Like i can put any Block inside that Block how to create please help us.
I don't know if one exists! But I think most things ARE documented in the handbook page: developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/how-to-guides/themes/theme-json/ and the Twenty Twenty Two theme.json file is an excellent example: github.com/WordPress/twentytwentytwo/blob/trunk/theme.json
ok this is awesome. so... then the CSS/SCSS that generates the front end... is that now also controlled with theme.json or is that still requiring adding the two class names per color (.has-COLORNAME-color and .has-COLORNAME-background-color)... which is what I have found to be the most annoying part of custom theme color palette :)
Do you mean if you have to add those classes and define them in your OWN scss/css? No. The classes and their definitions are autogenerated by theme.json dynamically. As well as any other custom properties you define in there. 😁

Thanks Toby! I'm hoping to make more this year. :)

Ooh. Tell me more! Do you mean custom CSS properties or something else?

Thanks Aurooba this is awsome. Is there a definitive document that lists ALL settings that can be controled with theme.json?
I don't know if one exists! But I think most things ARE documented in the handbook page: developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/how-to-guides/themes/theme-json/ and the Twenty Twenty Two theme.json file is an excellent example: github.com/WordPress/twentytwentytwo/blob/trunk/theme.json
